I have received my TTIG, and I am experimenting with a
STEVAL-STRK01, sending a message every minute, but I see that several packets are lost.
Packets are received more like every 2 mn.
And more important, after a while (33 packets) everything is stalled.
I see… ok, TTIG is working fine (here) so it must be your node (code) -is the green led flashing when its no longer forwarding ? -are you moving around with the node ?
No. There must be something else wrong with you code to cause this.
My TTIG has been running uninterrupted for a couple of days receiving data from several nodes without any issue. If a reset of just the node makes things come alive again the error is on the node, not TTIG. If you need to reset TTIG as well it might be an issue with the gateway, but given the information available at this time that seems unlikely to me.
Thanks Jac, this was helpful.
I have set up another node ( again a STEVAL-STRKT01)
As it looked fine, I have also set up a third one and flash again the first one.
Now it seems that everything is OK.
At least it has been running with no problems for more than 3 hours.
which has never been the case before. I will let it run as such for a longer time to test
the devices.
I need now to increase the range.
How do you change the coding rate (coding_rate) on the STRKT01 ?
I have already set the data_rate to the lowest possible :
To set the data rate, have a look at the “!loradr” command via USB to set the LoRa Data Rate and “?platformstatus” to double check. Restart the device after this procedure.
You can also change LORAWAN_DEFAULT_DATA_RATE in the main.c and send the “!defaultsettings” to use this new setting. Restart the device after this procedure.
To manage the Adaptive Data Rate (ADR), use the “!loraadronoff” command via USB and “?platformstatus” to double check. Restart the device after this procedure.
You can also change LORAWAN_ADR_STATE in the main.c and send the “!defaultsettings” to use this new setting. Restart the device after this procedure.
